the church was crowded, and brother J.

The body is q very delicate mechanism
through which the spirit manifests itself,
and by means of which is its only means
of manifesting itself in this phase of life.
That it is designated in scripture as "the
Temple of the Holy Ghost" is language
none too strong and too impressive. Its
supplies of food and of sleep-the two
forces that give it motive p~ower-should
be 30 carefully ordered in quality and
quantity that they may produce the best
results, and leave it in the best working
condition. This is the law and the prophets.

breakfast, steak, cracked wheat taken

Messrs. Riner & johnson, the parties
who are having the controversy with
Gordon, the former owner of the eighteen
blocks, which were mentioned in yester-
days LEADER, claim that the note
spoken Of has not been destroyed, but
that under legal advice they got possess
sion of it, and if it is shown that
there was no fraud connected with the
transaction which resulted in the giving
of the note by them, they are ready and
willing to pay it. They claim that the
whole matter was fraudulent and that GER
tain things were done and said by other
parties which led them to give the note;
and they take the ground that the owner
OF the property was at least knowing to
the fact that the transaction was not in
good faith. In other words, they claim to
have q legal defense to the note which
they propose to set up and that the note
was obtained from them by means of a
conspiracy.
THE LEADER defers expressing an
opinion in this case until it has been duly
investigated by the courts. Both civil
and criminal proceedings have been insti-
tuted against Riner & johnson, and of
course. all the facts will be brought out in
due time and given to the public through

TIRE BOOM.
1t Has Struck Cheyenne and is Bound to
Rage.

The long looked for building boom has
struck Cheyenne at last, and will from
this time on come pretty near keeping
pace with the real estate boom.
The following are some of the facts
which go to substantiate that the boom is
here:
Seven residences to cost all the way
from $1,000 to $40, 900 are now in process
of erection in the city.
The Knights Templars have decided to
build a $4,000 building.
Ben Eckdall has commenced operations
on the construction of a W story brick
building to cost several thousand dollars.
The building, 22x4S feet, is to be erected
on the site of ''Beu's Home on Fergu-
son street. The cellar is now being ex-
cavated and p. j. Mcdonald is to have
the contract for putting up the building.
Joseph Dillman has commenced opera
tons on Eddy street and will erect a two
story brick, 22x66 feet, on the site of the
old building recently occupied by A. D..
Kelley as a grocery. The building is to
cost from $1,000 to $4,000. Geo. Nc.
Swain has the contract and is already at
work.
j. X. Jeffrey is tearing down and
building on Ferguson street, and very
soon a brick building 45xSO will rise out
of the ruins OF the old building.
The A. O.rU. W. have placed the mat
ter Of the erection of a $3.50, 900 building,
66xl00 feet, on the southwest corner of
Sixteenth and Eddy streets. in the hands
of a committee.
In the meantime the plans for the new
Pacific hotel have already been prepared,
and active operations are liable to begin
almost any day.
To say nothing about the capitol or the
new depot, there are already, or soon will
be, in process of erection in Cheyenne
buildings that are going to cost $40, 900,
and including the capitol and new depot,
1866, 900.
Yes, the building boom is here.

The funeral of little Ray Rishel, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Rishel, occurred at
the Methodist church yesterday afternoon
at 2 O'Clock, Rev. d. l.. RAIDER officiating.
The funeral was largely attended by the
neighbors and friends of the family, and
the ceremonies, though brief, were i'm
pressive and appropriate. The remains
were inferred in the city cemetery.
There is something unusually sad about
the death of this little one-having a
piece of iron which he had accidentally
swallowed in his throat for three weeks,
he did not survive the surgical operations
that was performed Cor the purpose of re-
moving it.
